My vote goes for the Tiger. I believe they are bigger, but there are some people who think Lions can win. This is just funny.

pakistanis always go for tigers..i think imran khan started it in 1992 before the world cup..i seem to remember Imran's tigers

or maybe its coz they used to inhabit jungles of pak while lions are mostly all over africa

how about bluetang Vs yellowtang?






does any 1 know anything bout saltwater fish ere?

Did you know that there are small parts in India where they still have Lions. I'd like to vist the line where Tigers meet Lions.

ooooooooo bhenssssssssss

abe yeah kya topic hai yaar.

Geographic distance will never ever allow a tiger to meet a lion, only in the gir forest of Gujrat India there is a slight change that these two can meet, but that is also a remote possibilty. A tiger is solitary by nature, while the lion lives in a pride. If there is a fight it will be a close contest. Even though tigers are bigger (the biggest wild cats in the wild) a lion can still match up to a tiger.

Nobody can say for sure, who will win

do you guys know anything about Ligers

Its a cross btw a Lion and a Tiger Ligers do not occur in the wild, they result only from captive breeding. This is not because it is impossible, just extremely unlikely as the two species ranges overlap only slightly and a tiger would not be likely to associate with a pride of lions.



The liger is potentially the largest cat that currently exists in the world, typically larger than either of its parent species.

Here is a Liger



General information

A liger is the result of breeding a male lion with a female tiger. It has stripes and spots. The spots are inherited from the lion parent even though adult lions do not appear to be spotted.
The liger is a hybrid cat that inherits most of the strengths of both parent species and is larger than either. If you haven't seen a liger before, come visit Hobbs to get a look at the biggest cat you are ever likely to have seen. By way of size comparison, male Siberian tigers (the largest non-extinct naturally occurring member of the cat family, Felidea) average between 400 and 600 pounds. We estimate Hobbs to weigh about twice that.
All ligers are presumed to be born sterile. This is not unusual for hybrids. Mules are the result of breeding a horse with a donkey and are also presumed to be sterile, although there is an occasional, extremely rare, exception.

Checkout the size of this bastard

look at da size of da breast

GOOD GOD. Vo liger to teeno ko kha jaata, aur phir bhi bhukha hota.

those Siberian Tigers look far too big and obese compared to the gorgeous Royal Bengal Tigers. There ain't no match for those beauties ! . As for Asiatic Lions, Gir is the last sanctuary, but now plans are afoot to move to them to other locations in Gujarat too. kinda like keeps them safe from being wiped out at one go from some epidemic.







Did you guys know that all White Tigers the world over are descended from white Royal Bengal Tigers only ? There are no white Siberian Tigers in the world. Those that are claimed to be are just cross-bred with Royal Bengals.

and just to let you guys know, the Indian Navy MiG-29Ks will be handed over to the No.300 White Tiger squadron, which currently operate the Sea Harrier.

i vote tiger, but like Paguma said...it could go either way...

I love white tigers but hey, i guess the Lion would give it a fight n a half.

who are the idoits who voted for the lion? are they uneducated. tiger is atleast 75 lbs bigger.

abey LION is more powerful dont forget........Tigers sleep 16 hrs a day. alion is more active ....and is less FAT . which means more agility. the lion will KILL a tiger

one hell of an overfed tabby...

the thing could never have hunted enough to feed it's humungous mass...

the largest cat is the siberian tiger... and by the way, lions and tigers hate each other like hell...

HOLY CRAP! IS THAT THING REAL?

Haramee itna bara ho kar dood botal sey pee raha hey

man, it's tough question. i like lions very much and i also like tigers. they both seem to intrigue me very much, i guess i would pick them both.

Tuseef, fo watch discovery channel. Lions sleep 24 hrs a day. Tigers are a lot more active!

I would say LION !

simply because LION is one lazy ass animal who never hunts on its own ... it uses its women to feed him .... but the moment .. food is not there .... a hungry lion will tear apart anything in seconds ... it dosent give a crap to how big the pray may be .... i have seen (i think in documentries) where a lazy ass lion got hungry ... and all alone brought down one OX ... and another one quickly after ..


A tiger would probably wont be much of a match for one ticked off LION


also lion tends to usualy hunt bigger animals in the Tiger ...

so lion is where i am putting my money !

The Lions were thought to be inactive... wrong perception.
No one ever filmed Lions at night, but new footage
with Night Vision devices shows that most of the Lion
activity is during the night.

Thats why they sleep so much during the day.

Good question. I have too wondered about this question, and other similar questions such as: leaporad vs jaguar, Great white -vs- killer whale, American Pitbull -vs- African Baboon, Grizlly bear -v-s polar bear for a while now. I did some research a sometime back and reached the conclusion that in a fight between a healthy male lion and a healthy male tiger, the lion is more likely to win . Here are my reasons:

• Tigers are by nature reclusive animals. This means that all tigers have to fend for themselves and if a male tiger did somehow cross into a male lion's territory, it is going to find a way out than to stand and fight. Reason: it can't afford to stand, fight and injure a limb. That would be risking too much since no other family member will fend for him. On the other hand, a lion has all his females to take care of him. He can afford to fight.
• We have to consider the primary purpose of Lions and Tigers in their respective societies. While a male tiger mostly keeps to himself, a lion is a social animal. The purpose of a male tiger is to socialise only when it needs to mate. Its a shy animal preferring flight to fight. On the other hand, the only purpose of a lion in a pride is to protect it from other lions taking over. He's programmed to do this since any would-be overtakers will kill his cubs to induce mating and make sure that their gene is transeferred. In short, nature has evolved the lion into a supreme fighting machine, and the tiger into a supreme hunting machine
• To further support this argument, notice the body strucutre of both the animals. Notice the mane on a lion. Ever wondered why its only exclusive to the lions in big cats or there in the first place? Simple. Since a lion's life revolves so much around fighting, nature has provided it with this self-defence weaponary to protect its neck from injuries. Tigers hardly have any of this nature's self defence mechanism. So if a tiger tries to bite a lion's neck, all it is going to get is a lot of hair in his mouth. In fact a lion's mane is such a crucial part of his life that male lions that dont consitently win fights grow an long black manes, and those lions that end up losing will have shorter brown manes. Lionesses, in turn, are attracted to lions with black manes. A fact proven by research. Then we also have to consider the up-bringing of both these animals. Lions are brought up in a pride where they constantly have to defend themsevles from older, mischievious cubs. After getting expelled from the pride, the young lions have to again fight with other cubs of their age or slightly older than them to find a terrtory for themselves. This gives lions better endurance and better skills to fight. Bottom line, by the time a male lion cub turn into an adult, its an animal with fighting skills hardly matched by any other animal.
  
• Morevoer, historically too, lions have been known to out-fight the tigers. There was a very good website dealing with this question but I cant seem to locate it right now. It quotes specific incidents of lion/tiger fights.

Thats my two cents. hope it helps decide for those still undecided.


Between, check out the following image to get a better idea of the relative size of a Liger. This is a picture that I saved on my HD a long time ago.

LIONS anyday will rip apart ur tigers. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO SHIT UP NOW TIGER LOVERS!!!!!!!

I was always of the opinion Tigers were far bigger and ruthless than Lions. Wouldn't that give the Tiger a pivotal edge? The poor Lion has a bad reputaton of being lazy which isn't entirely true as shown by Discovery and National Geo channels.

After reading opinions here and watching their documentaries, I'm still undecided. Its one hell of a death match

But I tell you one fight I loved watching - I once saw 6-7 Lions take on a single Crocodile (on BBC). It was crazy shit, they couldn't pierce the Croc's thick armour and only went at its tail. But whenever the Croc turned and lunged at them with its mouth wide open, the all lions jumped back. They definately showed respect and really didnt know how to tackle it as they don't encounter Crocs that often except at the river crossings

which is Pakistan's national animal and bird ?

ok, found it on the net. Markhor ha ? a goat as your national animal ?

Here is ours !

seen the size of those horns???

one goes up the tiger's ass...

and ur tiger's got ass wounds... its going to be shitting blood; forever more...





from the looks of it; our maarkhors got the 1st tigers goat already...

tell that to your children ! . A tiger could take down an entire herd of your markhors .

hey, even Bangladesh has the Royal Bengal Tiger as its national animal !

and looks like the second one's seen, what happened to the other one... and thinks discretion the better part of valor...

see, thats the best part of interpretations ! each can interpret it the way he wants to na ?!

sharma jee;

u heard the one about the tiger and the donkey???

jahil khota Sharma, national animals are choosen not because of how big they are or look, but by how important they are to Biodiversity. India has choosen the Tiger as its national animal, as it is found all over India and that India has the biggest population of wild Tigers in the world. Markhor is the National animal of Pakistan, coz it is found in most numbers in Pakistan. Russian has choosen the brown bear as its natioanl animal as it is found all over Russia. And China the panda, coz it is only found in China.

Ab khota, we could have choosen the snow leopard or the common leopard as our national animal just because they are big and powerful, but these two are not found in the greatest number in Pakistan. Samgha ke tujhee samghaoon aur
